SINK PAN.

Application filed August15, 1921. Serial K054923759.

To all wit-m it may concern: a Be it known that I, IDA C. Annaiuspa citizen of the United States, residing at New Haven, in the county of NewHavenand State of Connecticut, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Sink Fans, of which the following is aspecification, reference being had therein to theaccoinpanying drawings. p

This invention relates to a new and improved sink receptacle and it is the principal object of the. invention to provide a device of this character which'may be properly supported within a sink without injury thereto and which may also be utilized for draining purposes.

Among other aims and ob ects of the invention may be recited, the provision of a device of this character with a view to com- 2 pactness, in which the number of parts are few, the construction simple, cost of product1on small and efliclency and operation hlgh.

The improvements in the details and arrangement of parts will be apparent from an inspection of the accompanying drawings in conneot10n w1th the description here1n-.

after contained and wherein a preferred em- 7 bodiment of the invention is disclosed for the purpose of imparting a full understanding of the same.

side of the pan along the-edges thereof as to v i leave open spaces 15 therebetween.

These strips as shown herein are made with two sides at substantially a right angle to each other andthe other side curved, and arepreferably made of Wood, rubber or like material'that is softer-than the enamel of the sink or the sink itself, so that theuse thereof will injure neither. They also provide a simple and convenient means for i1nparting rigidity to the pan and as only one corner, designated by the reference numeral 16, is in contact with the sink, the area of contact therewith is minimized. a

Any liquids that pass through the perforations 1] are discharged through the open spaces 15, thus the pan may be filled with articles and the running water poured over them escapes through said perforations into thesink and drains through the openings 15. lVhat I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is: v A sinkpan, having a bottom perforated except adjacent to the sides thereof, supports for the pan to elevate the bottom, permit drainage thereunder and not 1n ure the sur-- face incontact therewith,comprising a strip of material foreach side of the pan that is substantially the same length as the side of I the pan with which it is connected, but does not contact with an adjacent strip, said strips having two sides that are at substantially a right angle to each other, one of which is'in contact with the underside of the said bottom, and a third side which curves downwardly from the bottom of the pan and outwardly where it joins one of said sides to form a comparatively narrow surface to take the weight of the pan.

In testimony whereof, I have hereunto aflixed my signature.
